(4,462 posts)I'm an attorney, and would welcome you providing actual legal citations to the purportedly ample number of published cases detailing how an individual open-carrying a firearms, where permitted by law and owner of a private establishment, and without breaking other laws such as brandishing, provided a viable defense for someone leaving an establishment after having partook of services without payment.
In additional to these legal cases, would you also kindly provide a reliable sampling of scholarly data, including criminal charges and convictions, of people who actually engaged in a mass shooting while otherwise legally open-carrying of a firearm. This data should be readily available and very unequivocal considering the intensity and certainty of your claimed apprehension, including your need to immediately flee any area where a civilian possesses a firearm.
